Description

Secure water resources in arid regions with this specialized text from the NATO Science for Peace and Security Series C: Environmental Security. This book explores riverbank filtration, a low-cost and highly efficient water treatment technology. It is specifically designed for large cities situated near rivers or lakes that require reliable access to safe drinking water. For large population centers in developing countries, the high cost of building extensive treatment facilities is often a major barrier. This book explains how water filtration can be successfully implemented using naturally occurring sand and gravel found along river and lake banks. By utilizing these natural materials, the cost of water production remains much lower than traditional methods used in conventional treatment plants. Authored by a multi-disciplinary team, this publication provides essential knowledge for managing water security in desert countries. It offers a practical look at how natural processes can be used to provide sustainable and affordable water solutions for growing populations.

Key Features
